Question: what happens when you discover something new?

Great question!

So generally you end up writing your results into a scientific paper. This gets published online for other scientists to read (just like a newspaper containing the daily news).

A paper explains why you decided to do your experiment, what methods you used, what your results were and how your data compare with others and what they might mean.
